།ཚངས་པ་ཆེན་པོ་བཞིན་{br}ཞེས་བྱ་བ་ནི། ཇི་ལྟར་ཚངས་པ་ཚངས་པ་ཡི། །གནས་ནས་འཕོ་བ་མེད་བཞིན་དུ། །ལྷ་ཡི་གནས་ནི་ཐམས་ཅད་དུ། །སྣང་བ་འབད་མེད་སྟོན་པ་ལྟར། །དེ་བཞིན་ཐུབ་པའི་ཆོས་སྐུ་ལས། །བསྐྱོད་པ་མེད་པར་ཁམས་ཀུན་ཏུ། །སྐལ་ལྡན་རྣམས་ལ་འབད་མེད་པར། །སྤྲུལ་

  4. Jñānālokālaṃkārasūtra, D100, fols. 283a.5–284b.5.

sūtra - Sūtras mainly refer to the discourses delivered by the Buddha and his disciples, and the Sūtra corpus is one of the three main sets of teachings which form the Buddhist canon. Skt. सूत्र Tib. མདོ། Ch. 佛经

dharmakāya - "Truth body" or "true being" — One of the three bodies of a buddha. In Mahāyāna Buddhism, it often refers to a kind of fundamental principle or the true nature of reality itself. Skt. धर्मकाय Tib. ཆོས་སྐུ་ Ch. 法身

ātman - Though it can simply be used as the expression "I" or "me", in Indian thought the notion of self refers to a permanent, unchanging entity, such as that which passes from life to life in the case of people, or the innate essence (svabhāva) of phenomena. Skt. आत्मन् Tib. བདག་ Ch. 我,灵魂

nirmāṇakāya - An fully enlightened Buddha is said to have the power to manifest in many forms in order to help the sentient beings. The emanation body of a buddha, as the third of the three bodies of a buddha, refers to the many forms in which a buddha can manifest and which are accessible to ordinary sentient beings. Buddhist scholars present four types of emanation bodies: emanation as supreme being, emanation as rebirth, emanation as artisan and emanation in diverse forms. Skt. निर्माणकाय Tib. སྤྲུལ་སྐུ། Ch. 化身
